Write a reply to an introduction email. The email: [PASTE_INTRO_EMAIL]. Who introduced us and how I know them: [INTRODUCER]. Who the new contact is and what I know: [NEW_CONTACT]. What I want from the connection (or whether I am not interested): [MY_GOAL].

Write replies using this pattern: thank the introducer (move them to bcc or let them step back), greet the new contact, add one line about me and why this is relevant, make a specific next step.
Example: "Thanks, Maya, for the introduction (moving you to bcc to spare your inbox). Hi Daniel, great to meet you. I lead partnerships at Northline and would enjoy comparing notes on how you handle supplier onboarding. Would a 20-minute call next Tuesday or Thursday work? Best, Sam"

Write: an enthusiastic reply; a time-limited reply ("I'd love to, but I'm busy until March; can we speak then?"); a polite reply when I am not the right person (and suggestions of someone else with permission); and a gracious reply when I am not interested (with a thank-you to the introducer). Add a short thank-you to the introducer after the first call, with an update on the outcome. Under 100 words each. Don't be vague about the next step or add attachments unless relevant. Mark facts to confirm as [ADD DETAIL].
